Facing the prospect of complex dental problems and multiple, uncomfortable sessions may be a good reason to consider Sedation Dentistry. Often, many procedures can be accomplished in one visit while you relax comfortably in a deep, monitored sleep.

At The Lexington Dental Center, we can use conscious sedation, which is done with an IV, or we can prescribe an oral medication. The oral medication makes you very relaxed and some patients do sleep during treatment. Both methods are very safe. A complete medical history is taken before treatment to ensure that there are no complications, drug interactions or misunderstoods on directions for taking the oral medication.
